Freddy Mercury is noted for his live performances, which were often delivered to stadium audiences around the world. As a performer, he displayed a highly theatrical style that often invoked a great deal of participation from the crowd. One of Mercury's most notable performances took place at Live Aid in 1985, during which the entire stadium audience clapped and swayed in unison. Mercury's performance at the event has since been voted as the greatest live performance in the history of rock music.

About

more

Following the enormous conjecture in the press over the last two weeks, I wish to confirm that I have been tested HIV positive and have AIDS. I felt it correct to keep this information private to date to protect the privacy of those around me. However, the time has come now for my friends and fans around the world to know the truth and I hope that everyone will join with my doctors and all those worldwide in the fight against this terrible disease. My privacy has always been very special to me and I am famous for my lack of interviews. Please understand this policy will continue.

Freddy got born in Zanzibar as Farrokh Bulsara. He was a great rock'n'roll artist leading the most famous British band Queen. They recorded songs like "we are the champions", "bohemian rhapsody" and "bicycle race". These songs are still played as evergreens all around the world.
